BOOM!!
The lightning spear that had been about to strike suddenly stopped, just 0.01 centiters away from Aramaki's arrogant face.
Violent currents crackled in the air, making his sunglasses buzz, yet he didn't even blink. The sneer on his lips only grew more vicious.
"What's wrong, fat man? Scared?"
Aramaki taunted, the wooden dragon behind him creaking as it grew, ready to devour everything.
"Scared?"
Rehn's furious expression suddenly twisted into sothing else entirely,
Pure heartbreak.
He withdrew the lightning and pointed at the grass beneath his feet, roaring:
"I'M SCARED OF DAMAGING THE LAWN!!!"
"This is imported 'noble velvet grass' from the West Blue! Three thousand Beli per square ter! If we wreck this, plus the trees and the villa walls, do you know how much that costs?!"
He pulled out an abacus and calculated frantically.
"…No! Absolutely not! Fighting here is burning money! That's a cri against Lord Renzo's property!"
Aramaki: "…"
The crowd: "…"
The priorities were… questionable.
"Want to fight?"
Rehn suddenly pointed toward a distant island several nautical miles away.
"Go there! The ruins of Sector Four! Smash whatever you want, no compensation needed!"
"If you've got guts, follow ! Whoever doesn't is a coward!"
Before Aramaki could respond, ZAP!
Rehn vanished in a zigzag bolt of lightning, leaving behind scorched ground and ozone in the air.
"Hmph. Playing tricks."
Aramaki snorted.
A massive propeller-like flower sprouted beneath him.
"Forest Style: Helicopter Bloom!"
BZZZZ
It spun violently, lifting him into the air as he gave chase.
"Run all you want, no one escapes my forest!"
Behind them, "Are we just letting them go?"
"Are you kidding? We're following!"
Shelby drained his wine, eyes gleaming.
"This is a top-tier fight. You don't skip this."
Blake had already leapt onto a boat.
"I want to see how strong he really is."
Soon, dozens of officers followed, ships, using geppo, even people riding beasts, all rushing toward the dood island.
Forr Zone Four, a wasteland of rusted gears and broken pipes.
Today, it would be destroyed again.
Zzzzt
Rehn materialized atop a broken tower, coat flapping in the wind, aura fully unleashed.
Aramaki descended opposite him, landing on a heap of tal.
They stood hundreds of ters apart.
The air froze.
Then, power surged.
Golden lightning vs green forest.
Judgnt vs devouring life.
"Nice grave you picked."
Aramaki smirked.
"Plenty of room for plants to grow."
Rehn adjusted his monocle, smiling coldly.
"You think being Logia makes you invincible?"
"You think the Forest-Forest Fruit makes you immortal?"
A dense, golden lightning sphere ford in his palm.
"Today I'll teach you."
"What elental suppression ans."
"And rule number one in G-5-"
"Never show off in front of the manager."
He clenched his fist.
"Thunder tallurgy: Electromagnetic Cannon!"
BOOM!!!
A beam shot out instantly, no wind-up, no warning, crossing hundreds of ters in a blink.
"Too fast!"
Aramaki's head exploded into wood chips,
Then reford instantly.
"…So that's lightning speed."
"Not done yet!"
Rehn's voice ca from behind him.
Teleportation?
No, lightning movent.
"Armant Haki: Thunder Tyrant Barrage!!"
"ORAORAORAORA!!"
A storm of punches rained down, each one coated in Haki and electricity, blasting Aramaki like a punching bag.
Wood fragnts flew.
The sll of burning timber filled the air.
"DOWN YOU GO!!"
BOOM!!!
Aramaki crashed into the ground like a teor.
"Whoa!!"
"Chief Rehn is dominating?!"
"Too fast to see!"
Shelby narrowed his eyes.
"No… his aura isn't weakening."
"It's growing."
Suddenly, RUMBLE!!
The earth split open.
Massive roots burst out, spreading like serpents.
"Hahaha! That all you've got?!"
Aramaki's voice echoed.
"That barely hurt!"
"Now witness the forest's wrath!"
"Forbidden Forest: Rebirth of Withered Wood!"
The roots pierced everything, tal, rock, even seawater, absorbing nutrients wildly.
Within seconds, a hundred-ter-tall wooden titan rose.
Covered in Armant Haki.
Wielding a colossal sword.
"What the hell is that?!"
"A monster!"
"Chief Rehn looks tiny!"
From the titan's shoulder, Aramaki grinned.
"As long as the earth exists, I am immortal!"
"Forest Style: Giant Tree Slash!!"
The massive blade swung, enough to split the island.
Rehn didn't dodge.
He yawned.
"Big?"
"You think big matters?"
He smirked. "In front of a true powerhouse."
"Size just makes you a bigger target."
"200 million volts: Thunder God Mode, FULL POWER!!"
The sky turned into a sea of lightning.
Rehn transford, a five-ter lightning god clad in black-gold armor.
Not bigger, because compression is power.
"Armant Haki: Flowing Lightning Slash!"
A condensed blade of light ford in his hand.
"CUT!!"
He dashed forward, straight into the giant sword.
"DIE!" Aramaki roared.
SHHK!!!
A single cut. Clean. Effortless.
The massive blade split in half.
Perfectly like butter.
"My Haki… didn't stop it?!"
Aramaki's eyes widened.
"Not over yet!"
Rehn pierced through, straight into the titan's chest, hands plunging inside.
"You like being big?"
"Try INTERNAL BLOOMING!!"
"Thunder tallurgy: High-Frequency Microwave Heating!"
Instead of lightning, electromagnetic waves surged.
Heating the moisture inside the wood.
ZZZZZZ!!
Steam exploded outward.
"AAAAAAHHHH!!!"
Aramaki scread.
His entire body felt like it was boiling from within.
Three seconds.
BOOM!!!
The titan exploded from the inside.
Flaming debris rained down like teors.
Rehn floated calmly in the sky.
Adjusted his tie.
Looked down at the smoking Aramaki.
Smiling mockingly.
"Well, Mr. Aramaki?"
"Where'd all that confidence go?"
"You look like a roasted sweet potato."
He wagged a finger.
"Your 'forest'…"
"Is just too inefficient."
"PUAH!"
Aramaki spat blood.
Furious and humiliated.
"YOU BASTARD!!!"
"I'LL KILL YOU!!!"
